We've had 6" of rain this month and now I'm noticing that the drain field for my septic have all brown grass over them. What would cause this?

Okay; That is why the grass is brown. When the area drys up all will return to normal.

My neighbor's grass used to die over the drain field too. I told them it had something to do with the spicy food they were eating!
